MSI has announced the availability of two new members of its Ghost and Stealth line of gaming notebooks, the GS60 Ghost PRO 3K and the GS70 Stealth Pro gaming notebooks.

The two new Ghost and Stealth notebooks feature a new sleek and slim design as well as some updates to the hardware including a 3K 15-inch display on the GS60 Ghost Pro 3K, Super RAID storage technology and Geforce GTX 870M graphics card.

All four SKUs from the Stealth and Ghost lineup, which should already be available, at least in the US, pack the same Intel 4th generation Core i7-4700HQ CPU and the same Intel HM87 chipset. All four SKUs also share some other hardware features including 16GB of DDR3L 1600MHz memory, Killer E2200 LAN with Bluetooth 4.0, Intel's 7260 802.11ac 2x2 WiFi, SD card reader, Dynaudio speakers with subwoofer, couple of USB 3.0 ports, HDMI output, 720p front camera, 6-cell 120W battery and SteelSeries full color backlit keyboard.

The GS70 Stealth Pro SKUs feature a 17.3-inch 1920x1080p resolution screen and pack Nvidia Geforce GTX 970M 6GB graphics card as well as two options with Super RAID, either with three 128GB SSDs in RAID 0 paired up with 1TB HDD or two 128GB SSDs with same 1TB HDD. The MSI GS60 Ghost Pro SKUs on the other hand come with 15.6-inch WQHD+ 3K 2880x1620 screen and Nvidia GTX 870M 3GB GDDR5 graphics card. This one also has two storage options, either with Super RAID with two 128GB SSDs in RAID 0 and 1TB HDD or wiht single 128GB SSD paired up with 1TB HDD.

All four SKUs also share a rather steep price tag, so you either pay US $1,999 or US $2,099 depending on which storage option you decide to go for.

When the Serbs shot down a US stealth jet in 1999 many thought that the pieces would have been flogged to Russia. However it is now claimed that the Serbs flogged the bits to the Chinese who have put out their own version last month.

Apparently the Chengdu J-20 has similarities to the American F-117 Nighthawk which was shot down during Nato’s aerial bombing of the country during the Kosovo war, by a Soviet-built SA-3 missile. Chinese agents travelled to the region where the F-117 disintegrated, buying up parts of the plane from local farmers.

Admiral Davor Domazet-Loso, Croatia’s military chief of staff during the Kosovo war told the Daily Mail that the Chinese used those materials to gain an insight into secret stealth technologies... and to reverse-engineer them.’

It has taken a while to get the jet flying but reverse engineering can't be hurried.
